“Old Nerd in the Gym Fitness Caregiver Wellness”
Jan. 26, 2022
Gery L. Deer is an award-winning copywriter and journalist and managing partner of GLD Enterprises Communications, Ltd., a public relations and media firm based in Jamestown, Ohio now celebrating 25 years in business. He’s had a diverse career as a freelance journalist, editor, creative director, and copywriter, including a 2010 nomination for a Pulitzer Prize in Journalism. In 2009 Gery became a full-time caregiver for his mother, Lois, as she declined from the effects of Alzheimer’s disease. During that time, although he had some help with his mom from a close cousin, his health and finances took a severe hit. But, he managed to recover to some extent and regrouped. A few short years later, he was charged with caring for his father as he began a rapid decline due to the ravages of Parkinson’s disease. This time, he was alone, but he was better prepared – or so he thought. His father, Gary, Sr., passed away in July of 2020, but for nearly four years, Gery included him in activities that helped both maintain better physical health. Gery’s presentation, “Caregiving and the Old Nerd,” is based on the challenges faced by the nearly 43 million Americans who are “informal” (unpaid) family Caregivers. From poverty to poor health, Caregivers are saving the government and private industry billions while struggling to make ends meet because they chose to do what was best for their charges. Gery will also discuss the Old Nerd in the Gym Fitness Podcast and Blog, both free media productions of his company, and ways that you can directly improve the lives of Caregivers you may know.

Dayton Opera - Finding Wright
Feb. 02, 2022 11:30 a.m.
This opera is a world premiere, sparked when current Dayton Opera Artistic Director Kathleen Clawson and librettist Andrea Fellows Fineberg uncovered a unique gem in Dayton’s past right in the middle of Dayton’s Woodlawn Cemetery. Finding Wright is the story of human connection and emotion, centering on the life of Katharine Wright, sister of two of the most famous Wrights of Dayton, brothers of flight Orville and Wilbur Wright. Finding Wright is the first-ever full-length opera commissioned for and presented by Dayton Opera! One of the most exciting aspects of Finding Wright is that it has been created and will be presented by a team of four of the most talented individuals in today’s opera world, all of whom just happen to be women! With music by award-winning composer Laura Kaminsky, performed by the Dayton Philharmonic under the direction of conductor Susanne Sheston, along with libretto from Andrea Fellows Fineberg and directed by Kathleen Clawson herself, this opera will be an exciting event for Dayton this February! |

The Great American Jazz Story
Jul. 13, 2022
Jimmy teaches Jazz at U.D. Armed with his sweet horn and, if we're lucky, his singing voice, he will teach and entertain us about the world of American Jazz, one of USA's unique contributions to the world of music. Don't miss this one! Jimmy has a deep history with Rotary. During his first job teaching public school music in grades 1-12 in the late 1980s, he was a member of the Eureka Springs (AR) Rotary Club in District 611 and also served as its president and co-chair of the 1990 district convention. Needless to say, that club did a lot of singing of Rotary songs. For two years recently, he was a member of the Dayton Rotary Club (which does not sing and doesn’t want to). Born and raised in Oklahoma with parents as musicians, Jimmy was surrounded by music from birth. His father was a singer and church choir director; his mother was a singer and pianist and organist who taught piano students after school every week day. Jimmy’s two brothers and sister all played in band and sang in choirs. After singing in church and school choirs and taking piano lessons through the fifth grade, he began trumpet in the sixth grade. During high school, Jimmy was in band, orchestra, choir and studied private trumpet, voice, piano, and organ and this mostly continued through his undergraduate and graduate degrees in music. Jimmy's teaching assignments have included rural Arkansas public schools, colleges in Oklahoma, Michigan, Kansas, North Dakota and Harvard University where he received three teaching awards as a graduate assistant in jazz history, music theory, and music history. Jimmy’s performance have included classical, jazz, pop, and early music with performances with Johnny Mathis, Shirley Jones, Disney World, Opryland, and Boston Lyric Opera. While in Boston, he performed the national anthem for the Red Sox with the Boston Symphony Orchestra with John Williams conducting. He also soloed on the national anthem for another Red Sox game against Texas. Jimmy has been at UD for five years where he has taught various courses in ear training, jazz, and pedagogy. He performs with two UD faculty groups: the brass quintet and the jazztet. The Jimmy Leach Jazztet has performed at the Dayton Art Institute, the Wright Memorial Library, David’s Church, St. Paul’s Episcopal, and the Levitt Pavilion, where he’ll be next Friday July 22 and tomorrow night at the Art Institute. He recently became the music director and organist at Madison Avenue Christian Church in Covington, Kentucky.
